Walmart MoneyCard Reviews

They claim that the monthly fee is waived if a person deposits $500 or more in a 30 day period. But this is misleading because a little less than a week and they deducted the fee already. So, you pay for the card initially, and they require you to put at least $20 cash on it and then a week later they deduct $5.94. From the statement they give, a person should have 30 days from purchasing the card before being charged. Especially since they already charged you for the card itself. But instead, they're charging you a usage fee when you haven't even used it yet.

Absolutely Disgusting Treatment – Green Dot/Walmart MoneyCard is Forcing a 70-Year-Old Woman Into Homelessness! If I could give a -10 stars, I would. I am an advocate for homeless and displaced individuals, and I have never seen such heartless, incompetent customer service in my career. My 70-year-old homeless client, Pamela **, lost her Walmart MoneyCard, which holds her only source of income—$709 in Social Security funds. For the past five days, I have been forced to deal with robotic script-readers who refuse to address the issue.

Third month in I put next month's bills on the card and overnight Uber in San Francisco charged me 294.63 for 7 rides. I live in Maine... Only used the card for bills. Hard to believe someone just punched in the magic numbers or better yet my card somehow flew 5 thousand miles overnight to take an Uber around the city. Filed a dispute and they said I had ten days to mail in proof that it wasn't me that made the purchase! Then said it'd be 90 days or more to receive it back. Oh yeah and they shut the card down so all my bills would be late by the time the new card would arrive. The woman I spoke with I couldn't understand one bit, took ten times what it should've because of having her slow down and repeat what she said... Don't bother. Big corporate scam on us!

Well, in the beginning, I liked my account but then I discovered that you have to pay to load money on it in store, you have a transfer limit, not to mention it cost me almost 7.00 every time I get money at an ATM ... I had my tax refund deposited to my card and because it had my husband name and my name on joint return they sent it back to IRS and I had to wait for them to verify identity and send me a check in mail so that was 16 weeks I waited to get my return, then I just ordered a card and paid 15.00 for shipping and I haven't received my card yet and I can't access my money because I live 40miles from a Walmart that closes early and customer service will not give you money of your card only money center can... Not to mention I found out I can't transfer but a certain amount to another card so I'm screwed and can't access my paycheck. THANKS MONEY CARD!!!

This card company “green dot banking” sucks. I had fraud in my account and it took almost 6 months to have these people figure it out. At the end they still aren’t refunding me all my money back so I’m still fighting with these people. Most of the time the only people who understand what I need are the supervisors. All other staff is a waste of time.

Walmart moneycard is a fraud..they have stolen money from me and never ever refunded back...They told many stories that they was sending me a refund. Never ever received it...Please beware!!! Fraud company.

I opened a Walmart Moneycard to use when I travel. I used it in September 2024 in Canada without any issue. I had recently placed money on the card for my next vacation and 5 days before I leave, I tried to use the card to make a purchase for my trip and it was declined. I thought nothing of it thinking maybe I had the number wrong or locked it. I attempted to log in and was informed my account was "closed due to suspicious activity."

This was the worst experience using this debit card. I've had credit fraud and didn't want to link my savings or checking accounts to my bank. So, it's like you get punished for not doing that bc I now have to pay $3 to add cash to my Walmart debit card, which I do in person. And then they charge you $5 a month for fees. Sure adds up quickly. Waste of my time and I will be discontinuing my account with them.

I had my account closed due to fraud and they are supposed to mail me a check for my balance. Almost 1,000. I have been waiting for months!!! Spoken to multiple reps and supervisors with no resolution. Will most likely have to file in court now.

Absolutely terrible. I loaded $280 and now I can’t get it off of the card even though I can’t use it for what it was intended for. It doesn’t work with PayPal Venmo or Cash App either. They will automatically decline the transaction. Please don’t get this card you WILL regret it.
